DC. Kernel 3.4.2 has initial support for your stick....in /lib/modules/3.4.2-dpup/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/dvb-usb-rtl28xxu.ko

Have you plugged in your stick and tested. And check the dmesg in console after that. Or try modprobe dvb-usb-rtl28xxu and test again.

I couldnt find recent patch for your stick.

/usr/src/linux/drivers/media/dvb/dvb-usb/rtl28xxu.c mentions rtl2832u several times.
If that support does not work for you, I could try to hunt recent ready patch for 3.4.2 kernel.

About kernel headers. They are included in devx sfs in Puppies. In dpups also. When you compile kernel modules...I would recommend to use devx sfs of the build. The other devx sfs usually works for applications. I mean same puplet but older kernel version usually works. Debian packages their kernel totally differently than Puppies. So...the ready kernel patching kits from debian ubuntu or squeeze does not work.

Charlie6. Yeah...it seems to need that libcurl-gnutls.so.4. libcurl3-gnutls deb from PPM debian squeeze repo installs that lib. I must have had that lib due to my compiling already.

DC. I am checking the rtl2832u patches.
About JWM window thichkness. Yeah...I have reduced it to too narrow. In /root/.jwm/themes....check the jwmrc files of the themes. In there is the tag: <Width>3</Width>
Change it for example to whatever number you want. From 1 or 3 to 5 or 8. From 8 the resizing by dragging is easy, lol.

I would be curious to know if this video stream plays in your new VLC 2.0.1

http://173.193.48.140:8080;stream.nsv

It is just the one from the button "Shoutcast Movie" in Pupradio/Puptelly but it is in fact "Old Fashioned TV".

I have found that in some VLC versions in Puppy I get video but no audio and I was wondering if this is something in the way it was compiled or if it is something which needs to be altered in the (rather large) preferences like a demuxer setting perhaps?_________________Oscar in England

It plays but no sound in vlc-2.0.1 dpup and fatdog, it plays with sound
in ubuntu 12.04 running in virtualbox in slacko 533.

EDIT: umplayer plays that link with sound in fatdog, I haven't tried the dpup version of umplayer.

So basically, all I did in Slacko to get .bashrc to run automatically, was to uncomment the line in /etc/profile that says #export ENV="/root/.bashrc". It worked after my computer rebooted, and this method will very likely apply to other puppies as well.

The line below it says:
#...no, instead have exported SHELL=bash, see above.

That has me a little worried, as I didn't change the shell to SHELL="/bin/sh", but everything seems to be working normally so far.

@Pemasu. I am using Slacko now, but I plan to switch over to Upup Precise, once it's finished. ( Newer Gcc and libs ).
